Taxonomy

2 Specimens from Peninsular Malaysia sometimes have relatively large fruits, up to 2.5 cm long; in Borneo fruits may reach a length of 30 mm. 1 Var. malayana Warb. is excluded by its lectotype, which is K. pseudo-laurina. Var. amboinensis Warb. is included in the synonymy; its type, Beccari s.n., was originally collected in the botanical garden at Bogor, but cannot have originated from Ambon, as explained by Sinclair (1961: 254).
